Joe Calzaghe vs GGG/Jacobs/Canelo

I though Jacobs might be toughest out of the three being the longer and harder puncher.
But I think GGG decision all. Canelo being the easiest one.

 

3g certainly could well stop him, the others too small or too lacking to do so.

mind you joe struggled with average LMWs before, so an elite one like canelo would have 50/50 of outpointing him.

this is in neutral arena. in cardiff joe gets fake stoppage wins.

 

That would be Canelo's last pro fight. He would get Lacy'd x10.

It would be brutal.

And I say it would be Canelo's last pro fight because he would be so humiliated I'm not sure he'd want to show his face in a ring ever again.

To be fair to Canelo, though, Joe is naturally a few divisions larger than he is.

 

calzaghe EASY against any of those. Is this really worth a thread???

 

Calzaghe makes all three of them look stupid, slow footed, defenseless, punch shy and confused.

 

Joe beat's them all. Golovkin might give him some problems and might knock him down but at the end Joe wins clearly on points

 

GGG is to slow to time Joe. The quick minded/footed and hand speed will be to much for GGG to even counter. If you notice GGG when the others punch he does NOT punch with them as he knows he is slower so he resets and then marches forward with his offence.

 

While I agree that Golovkin isn't fast and Calazaghe should win I disagree on the last part Golovkin style is based on countering just watch the Geale KO.

 

Prime Calzaghe would stop all of them. As would faded ended of career Calzaghe

 

Calzaghe wins them all... Beats Froch, Ward and Kovalev too.

 

Joe in his prime could fare well against all of them and be favored

 

Calzaghe fought binmen and old folks he pulled out of the retirement homes

Would get KO'd against a Gunman like Froch or Kovalev or GGG

 

Joe beats Ward, Kovalev and Golovkin beat Joe.

 

We've never seen GG at SMW yet.

I think it would have been a horrible match up for him stylistically, and there's the reach advantage.

I can envisage Joe out working him with his flurries.

Even though he often concentrated more on volume than accuracy, he possessed great hand speed and GG is easy enough to hit.

At this stage, I think Joe would had to have been heavily favoured.
